harisund | django_ personally I was using Breezy, and kept 'upgrading' to the dapper ever since dapper was on beta mode (not the alpha ones) | 12:01 |
tamale | Is SSH running as a server by default on a server install of dapper ? | 12:01 |
django_ | and know i couldn't do the same when i used linux | 12:01 |
=== maarav [i=mooznach@84.94.27.238.cable.012.net.il] has left #ubuntu [] | ||
harisund | tamale no .. you will have to install it | 12:01 |
userundefine | Cau1, you already have ntfs devices mounted. "cd /media/sda1" or "cd /media/sda5" | 12:02 |
harisund | tamale no server runs by defaul as in no ports are open by default on a server installation of dapper | 12:02 |
dr_willis | django_, I tend to keep /home on its own partition and just reinstall away. :P | 12:02 |

tamale | j/k... i'll read an actual server install guide if there's a good one out there. | 12:02 |
tamale | i just want the basics.. apache, php, mysql | 12:02 |
django_ | dr_willis, actually, most of the time i wouldn't put a machine into production if i only upgraded it, only reinstalled | 12:02 |
harisund | dr_willis good idea .. I do that too ... but the problem is if I am switching distros while keeping my /home as it is, things get messy once a while :) | 12:02 |

userundefine | Cau1, no | 12:04 |
Seveas | django_, so which one was the best? | 12:04 |
Cau1 | well there should be more | 12:04 |
harisund | dr_willis true .. that explains the hesitation of server system-admins to reinstall or upgrade.. anything breaks it is such a hassle to get everything back the exact way you configured it . | 12:04 |
django_ | Seveas, i never really got to the bottom of it | 12:04 |
django_ | Seveas, but someone else suggested grep lol | 12:04 |

coreyt | Anyone know if there's a problem with archive.ubuntu.org ? BUMPS keeps failing on it. | 12:22 |
django_ | that eliminates the firewall/network | 12:23 |
dr_willis | its Possible that vncserver is starting and exiting - because you dont have a .vnc/xstartup script or its there but spawning a invalid window manager | 12:23 |

Gixbit | timas: do you know what's wrong with it? | 12:44 |
kern_malloc | h3x0r: yup i remember yggrdrasil... and SLS (which became slackware) | 12:44 |
timas | Gixbit: I've been having /a lot/ of trouble with my SATA drive in Linux.. I'm runing the 19 version of the kernel where Dapper is currently in its 26th stage.. that 19 kernel seems to be the only one that works for me.. your issue might be somewhat of the same.. If the kernel you installed fails to load the proper driver for that SATA drive/controller | 12:44 |

richiefrich | mikeo1 then u can install apt-get ntp-client | 12:45 |
Gixbit | timas: well i don't know this is a fresh installation | 12:45 |
neutrinomass | timas: If you have narrowed it down to a kernel version, then file a bug report - it will be fixed quickly | 12:45 |
roby | Does the package system follow that of Debian? i.e. Does Drake continue to get updated with the latest packages or is it run like Debian's sarge? | 12:45 |

h3x0r | i downloaded slackware from a BBS | 12:46 |
kern_malloc | haha | 12:46 |
h3x0r | it was like 40 floppies | 12:46 |
nikin | arto: xine? | 12:46 |
h3x0r | took like 3 weeks | 12:46 |
timas | Gixbit: Does Grub give any messages? Like "press esc to select from a list" or somesuch? | 12:46 |
arto | nikin: I should use xine you mean? | 12:46 |
unmannedleech | sure they do i haven't had a problem | 12:46 |
h3x0r | there was one disk that was corrupted and i was pissed | 12:46 |
bigbill52a | why does k3b run so much faster than nero....dqotd? | 12:46 |
peace-keeper | this works :D "sudo su" | 12:46 |
Gixbit | timas: there is no grub | 12:46 |
zenit | libuntu: sorry, I don't use two screens for the moment. Don't even have a Matrox card anymore :) But the specs look good, so it's probably just your driver or the config. | 12:46 |
eternaljoy | h3x0r: ROFL | 12:46 |
nikin | arto: i mean you should test it out | 12:46 |
h3x0r | so i go to best buy and ask this guy for a 3 button mouse | 12:47 |
Gixbit | timas: it doesnt look like it installed GRUB at all | 12:47 |
kern_malloc | yup i remember the slacware floppy install | 12:47 |

ajt | longwave: http://paste.seagullproject.org/51 | 03:42 |
ajt | AAA: yes | 03:42 |
cdubya | XXS, understood. Glad you're having a good experience. :) | 03:43 |
tivoklr | and the other ip will only have ports 80 and 443 go to one box on the network | 03:43 |
sproingie | dibblego: esd is the sound mixer, and it should work out of the box. insofar as anything alsa-related actually can work out of the box | 03:43 |
ajt | AAA: at least that's the driver I used on this machine | 03:43 |
cius | micahcowan, no, I'm working on a program for a class, simulating a FAT fs in memory, prof wants us to tag an EOF on the end of files in our simulated fs. I thought there was an ASCII val for it... | 03:43 |
ChrisC_ | Does anyone here know how to get "bonus" data material (e.g. an mpeg file) off of an enhanced audio CD? I did it once before, but I can't remember how. | 03:43 |

ajt | AAA: I'll start from the beginning | 03:43 |
sproingie | dibblego: skype may not be using the mixer then. not sure. | 03:44 |
ajt | tivoklr: why not :) That's what I'm setting up now | 03:44 |
AAA | ajt yeah, I don't use WPA, but I use wifi a lot | 03:44 |
longwave | ajt: i don't know much about the atheros drivers, but yeah probably best to disable WPA for now | 03:44 |
tawy | ah ok. thanks aaa. i ask because im getting many messages like no such file or directory, some index files failed to download or old ones used instead. | 03:44 |
ajt | AAA, longwave: thanks...I'm going to start from the beginning w/o wpa and then go from there | 03:44 |
scrappy_ | iamjwc: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WindowsDualBootHowTo will explain alot of it | 03:44 |
dibblego | sproingie, when you say "using the mixer", is the mixer some kind of in-between software from the application to the sound card? | 03:44 |
tivoklr | ok, i'll scrounge up another nic and go from there. thanks. | 03:44 |
micahcowan | cius: no ASCII val... on DOS ctrl-Z has been used for this, but it's not a true EOF (there's no such character: that's the /point/ of EOF). This is way offtopic for this channel, though, so it's probably not fruitful to continue discussing it here. | 03:44 |
gekko` | neoth: are you using a touchpad AND a mouse? | 03:44 |

Jack_Sparrow | realtek is the soundcard equivalent of a Winmodem.. | 03:45 |

Im also losing adesklets. It starts when the system starts because I see it come up. But then when I put in my password for firestarter it disappers and I have to run adesklets for the terminal again to get it started again. | 04:13 |

BrianG | its a 512mb usb drive | 04:52 |
sethk | BrianG, better name to use is: mkfs.vfat /dev/sda1 | 04:52 |
sethk | BrianG, even on those windows makes a partition table and partitions | 04:52 |

scrappy_ | BrianG: if you type mk and hit tab twice it will dislay all the possible commands depending on file type you want also the apropos command like apropos fat | 04:53 |
sethk | BrianG, should be, yes. I was just clearing up the confusion about it being easy to do in linux | 04:53 |
BrianG | sethk: why sda1? the device is sda isnt it? | 04:53 |
aujordanh | AAA, auto lo eth2 and we're good right? | 04:53 |
=== jimothy [n=jimothy@c-68-36-40-203.hsd1.nj.comcast.net] has left #ubuntu ["Ex-Chat"] | ||
sethk | BrianG, sda1 is the first partition on device sda. do this: fdisk -l /dev/sda if you see a partition table, then you use sda1 | 04:53 |
sethk | BrianG, if it's mounted already in linux you can just do: mount (no arguments, just mount) which shows you what's currently mounted | 04:54 |
AAA | aujordanh should be, to test ifconfig eth2 down and then ifconfig eth2 up | 04:54 |

vilefridge | Hello everyone! I've ran into a rather strange problem last night. I let Update manager go ahead and do a sleugh of updates. Upon rebooting, my font size for everything (Windows, Programs, icons on desktop, etc..) was sooo small. I have no idea how to fix this. I've been to #xubuntu and toyed around with User Interface settings without any luck. Does anyone have any suggestions? Anyone heard of this happening before? Is this | 05:47 |
vilefridge | a bug? | 05:47 |
Ireclan | Thankyou. I shall try that. Because when I try the default rout, it takes FOREVER to do a damn thing, even though I meet the memory requirements for the livecd. | 05:47 |
sovi3t | searayman: not really, i dont do much gaming on this box | 05:47 |

circasurvive | now | 06:21 |
ManiacKY | Okay. This is driving me crazy. I have a external hard drive that I will need to remove from my PC daily. However I can never get ubuntu to see it unless its plugged in while the system boots up! If I unmount it, remove it from the PC and then plug it back in it would mount or find the device again. :( I have to reboot before it finds it again. I can't be rebooting every day for other users are connected to this system at the same time. Any suggestions on | 06:21 |
_priest | vilefridge: you may want to kill gdm/gnome and log into a vt | 06:21 |
vilefridge | _priest, I think the updates were Gnome Theme related? yet... I use XFCE. | 06:21 |
_priest | vilefridge: then remove ~/.g* | 06:21 |
_priest | and restart gnome | 06:21 |

Tixer | kk | 07:29 |
Tixer | though that might take awhile.... | 07:29 |

dario314 | Just curious if there is a live CD image with a partitioner that's like a few Mb. | 07:30 |
DaveLibu | before defrag the data can be scatttered all over the partition | 07:30 |

rhb | spiral777, when you removed the winxp partition, did you change any other partitions? | 07:55 |

rhb | spiral777, so you did not create or delete any partitions in the physical space before or after the winxp partition? | 07:56 |

minimec | Hi folks. I am not happy with the behavior of my usb stick. When I copy from my harddisk to the usb stick gnome is showing me the copy window with the bar, indicating the copy process. But in fact the system is not copying until I unmount the stick. I thought that it is possible to change this behavior. Can you help me with that? | 12:09 |

I need some i2c driver, especially i2c-s3c2410.c, and corresponding i2c-s3c2410.h. Whaere I can find these on the kernel.org repository? I am a bit confused, please help... | 02:09 |

nny_ | ompaul did you just read the nvidia part? | 02:20 |
Warbo | nny_: I found that nvidia-glx tries to install linux-image-2.6.15-23-386 if you don't have linux-restricted-modules installed, but after that I was fine | 02:20 |
kidbuntu | why when i'm download something. the download speed is very slow. and whenever i'm pasting something. instead. # sign is pasted | 02:21 |

nny_ | Warbo and this would help how? | 02:22 |
ompaul | nny_, - am I to take it you don't want X or you do want X? | 02:22 |

DJAdmiral | Howitzer: try getting VMWare Player from the ubuntu repos instead ;) | 03:07 |
incandenza | smssms: yeah, it would be a pain | 03:07 |
Shinzetsu | Howitser: install build-essential and use Synaptic to search for 'linux-headers' and install the one for your kernel/cpu architecture | 03:07 |

Shinzetsu | Howtizer: use 'sudo apt-get install build-essential' to get the C compiler so it can make a version for your kernel, after that use Synaptic to search for 'linux-headers' and get the right one for your kernel version+cpu architecture | 03:09 |

Bison | Warbo: what directory do they go to? | 03:10 |

Howitzer | but Shinzetsu, does it matter if it's called kernel-headers or linux-headers? | 03:11 |

Tamale | Hello, I'm having a pretty strange issue with my new rackmount computer install of dapper. When I turn the computer on with a monitor attached, the resolution at x's startup is 1280x1024, which is what I want. If I turn the machine on without the monitor turned on, it starts x at 640x480 and I can't make it any higher through VNC - 640x480 is the only option available. How can I make 1280x1024 the default even if there is no monitor attached? | 08:21 |
Paddy_EIRE | Dodzey is 512 sufficient for swap or could i do better i have 948.2 of ram | 08:22 |

hellboy195 | nickharvey : ok no problem thx ;) | 08:22 |
jbroome | Tamale: i believe that's a VNC setting | 08:22 |
Samus_Aran | Tamale: Xorg uses the monitor which is currently attached and turned on at startup to autodetect its parameters | 08:22 |
Dodzey | paddy:i think you'll find 512mb to be fine, i have 1gb of ram and i havent yet seen ubuntu touch my swap | 08:22 |
=== jcerd [n=tuanhaot@58.186.122.21] has joined #ubuntu | ||
Blissex | Tamale: that happens because the X servers tries to read from the monitor the maximum resolution it can do, so it is dynamic. You need to put in '/etc/X11/xorg.conf' the monitor parameters statically. | 08:22 |
Samus_Aran | Tamale: if no monitor is attached, then it doesn't know what hardware you have | 08:22 |
Tamale | Samus: That's what i was afraid of. This computer will be going into a datacenter with no monitor attached | 08:22 |
Dodzey | but then again, ive never done anything very ram intensive | 08:22 |
harisund | Ghagge whatdo you mean "all other packets" ? | 08:23 |
Samus_Aran | Tamale: the way to work around this is to set the horizontal and vertical sync rates in your /etc/X11/xorg.conf file, therefore bypassing autodetection | 08:23 |
Tamale | Samus_Aran: could you help me do this? | 08:23 |
Samus_Aran | Dodzey: I have 1.25GiB RAM and very often use up more than a half-gig of swap =p | 08:23 |
Samus_Aran | Tamale: first off, you need to know the sync rate of the monitor which *will* be attached at some point | 08:24 |

harisund | Tamale remote desktop is a VNC server that exports the current display .. so somebody will have to be logged in for it to work | 08:35 |
Tamale | system - preferences - remote desktop | 08:35 |
tuxtux | ciao | 08:36 |
gandalfcome | I have ubuntu dapper drake installed and am using gnome with and xgl server. My problem: I gave my NIC a static ip address but it seems to forget it every few minutes and I have to deactivate and then activate it again via the network manager that it gets it again | 08:36 |
Tamale | harisund: I bypassed that problem by enabling auto-login | 08:36 |

Samus_Aran | Tamale: if the server will only be used part of the time, I recommend setting up VNC with a display manager, so that when someone connects to the server, it will pop up a user login screen, and if someone else logs in, it will do the same thing (spawning a second, separate VNC server) | 08:36 |
harisund | Tamale .. nice.. so now technically you can use any VNC server to login | 08:36 |
harisund | I eman, vnc client tamale | 08:36 |
Tamale | RIght | 08:36 |
Tamale | it works fine | 08:36 |
Tamale | I just have the resolution problem | 08:36 |
Samus_Aran | Tamale: okay so that is your problem right there: you are using X2VNC | 08:36 |

Tomze | flujan: maybe edit /etc/locale.gen by hand? | 08:37 |
Samus_Aran | Tamale: there is no reason to be using a real X server, if there is no local user. it uses more resources and will run into driver issues if you use binary drivers (such as nVIDIA) | 08:37 |
gandalfcome | why does my ubuntu (6.06) forget its static ip adress after a few minutes | 08:37 |
Tamale | It's just using the stock ati drivers, and I actually need decent graphic support for a windows program i'll be running through wine. | 08:38 |
Dodzey | BobSongs: I am not too sure whether a re-isntall will solve it, but its worth a shot i suppose | 08:38 |

Samus_Aran | Tamale: so you need OpenGL support on the VNC server ? if that is the case, X2VNC [what you're using] is the only way. it still isn't very efficient to be using that over a network. anyhow, do what I said initially, set the modelines for the monitor | 08:39 |
=== prodigel [n=chatzill@86.35.196.102] has joined #ubuntu | ||
BobSongs | Dodzey: well, this IS a re-install. And the mic has worked before. Note: I put a DVD into the DVD drive and captured the dialog in Sound Recorder. So capturing seems to works. Just ... not from the Microphone. | 08:39 |
Samus_Aran | Tamale: it will default to 640x480 unless it detects a monitor or has the sync ranges | 08:40 |

BobSongs | Samus_Aran: Yep. Thanks. I'm there and have done exactly that. And it isn't solving the problem. When I reboot in XP it works. So it's not a wiring issue. Dapper is receiving the feed cuz I hear sound out of the speakers. | 08:42 |

Tamale | Samus_Aran: I can get the information. I just don't know how to put it into xorg.conf | 08:43 |
Samus_Aran | BobSongs: the microphone has an entry on the main alsamixer screen, that controls whether you heard it out of the speakers in realtime (normally you turn this off to avoid feedback). the second screen with the input devices has one entry for each recording device (line in, mic, cd/dvd, wave, etc.). there may also be a gain setting which is required to turn up or on before the mic recording will be loud enough to hear | 08:43 |
flujan | Tomze, ok no problem... but i need to put the locale in pt.BR-ISO8859-1 | 08:43 |
Tamale | Samus_Aran: How it should be formatted, what the syntax is, etc. | 08:43 |
BobSongs | Dodzey: Hmm. Interesting. You hear the sound thru the speakers but it won't record. Gotcha. | 08:44 |

gandalfcome | can someone help me with my ubuntu: it looses the set static ip adress after a few minutes | 08:45 |
Samus_Aran | BobSongs: so for a CD length wave file in 24bit format, it would take gigs of RAM when you press play ... | 08:45 |
BobSongs | Samus_Aran: Ahh! In Linux I cannot get it to record a second track while the first plays back as it does in Windows. | 08:45 |
BobSongs | Yeah. | 08:45 |

BobSongs | Samus_Aran: I wouldn't mind paying for some decent software if it comes down to it. But if ardour seems to be the software of choice, then I'll go for it. | 08:48 |
Samus_Aran | BobSongs: Ardour reads all files off the hard drive, and applies all effects in realtime, meaning it doesn't modify anything on the hard drive. if you crossfade two tracks, that is just stored in a tiny data file, the actual crossfading is done in realtime when you play. it uses almost no RAM compared to Audacity, and lets you play backward or forward at any speed with mouse drags | 08:48 |

wubrgamer | so guys | 09:01 |
Samus_Aran | BobSongs: there are two types of commands, ones that get sent to the server, and ones that the IRC client itself handles. for example on FreeNode there are the commands "nickserv", "memoserv" and "chanserv" (for handling nickname registration, sending messages when someone isn't on IRC and registering channels) | 09:01 |

Samus_Aran | BobSongs: most IRC clients will send a command to the IRC server, if it doesn't know what the command is. so if you go "/nickserv help" (which is a server command), it will probably send it to FreeNode | 09:02 |
Samus_Aran | RunUO763: do you have a 1982 high radiation CRT ? | 09:02 |

BobSongs | Dodzey: Wow! What didja do? | 09:03 |
Samus_Aran | Tamale: <Samus_Aran> Tamale: those are my modelines for one of my monitors (a Dell UltraScan 1600HS D1626HT 21" up to 1600x1200) | 09:04 |
=== BobSongs cheers. | ||

Dodzey | working* | 09:04 |
Samus_Aran | Tamale: you should replace them with your own modelines, if you will ever attach a real monitor | 09:04 |
BobSongs | Dodzey: Workin works. | 09:04 |
bosco | khaled_, it is not open source but it may be a third parry but they are trusted and you are not really giving them your password they are jst the middle man for MSM server ETC.... | 09:04 |
RunUO763 | Khaled_ most IM have a legit online version | 09:04 |
bosco | khaled_, and others | 09:04 |
Samus_Aran | Tamale: additionally, if you do not want 1600x1200, you should add a line for 1280x1024 as the default resolution | 09:04 |
polishkoop | I'm having trouble getting ndiswrapper to work on dapper. I blacklisted the bcm4306 drivers, got the windows driver installed, and configured my device. But it doesn | 09:04 |

Samus_Aran | Tamale: every monitor is different, that is why Xorg autodetects. the monitor tells X what its valid ranges are, thereby avoiding using the wrong modes ever. Windows lets the driver set the modelines (unless you just choose one of the standard monitors), which can cause problems if you change monitors | 09:06 |

BobSongs | nuaimat: So on that level you've got to be somewhat careful. If you're going to edit your /etc/hosts file, I recommend doing it in an editor like 'gedit' and keeping the copy running with the file open. And of course it must be opened in the terminal as 'sudo gedit'. | 09:38 |

finalbeta | I've installed totem-gstreamer and codecs for divx etc etc. now I want to use totem-xine , but once installed that doesn't use the codecs. How do I make totem-xine use the codecs? | 09:48 |
RamiKassab | Samus_Aran, so there should be plenty left for postfix now | 09:49 |

BobSongs | nuaimat: Save the file. That's about all you need. | 09:49 |
RamiKassab | Samus_Aran, is it really that difficult for the server to recognize the right amount of freespace? | 09:49 |

Samus_Aran | RamiKassab: okay, so it does look like the problem is that the Ext has gotten confused about its free space. only way around that which I am aware of is to remount the partition read-only and then fsck it to update the free space count. perhaps google for: ext OR ext2 OR ext3 free space count | 09:50 |

sethk | scott, you would be slowing down every access, to fix the case where something is streaming. | 10:44 |

gdb | nu: Now install imagemagick and use the convert command to convert that x window dump format image into something people can actually use like jpg or png or gif or whatever. | 10:55 |
micahcowan | Tamale, qwerty2k, it's pretty well supported, but proprietary, so we can't fix bugs in it. Also, the very latest versions aren't available, so some sites are inaccessible. | 10:55 |
TheGame | how do i change my refresh rate | 10:55 |
Magnus-swe | jvaughn: ignore any distribution specific way and youll be fine... Ignore any "extra version" and just do it NIKE! and youll need the grub/lilo configuration addition | 10:55 |
TheGame | do i do it in xorg? | 10:55 |
sethk | qwerty2k, you can lower the priority of the firefox process | 10:56 |

mint|Alex | adobe acrobat | 11:45 |
mint|Alex | lol | 11:45 |
odla | Dodzey: thanks | 11:45 |
cdubya | trogbot, for example, if you're sharing the user homes | 11:45 |
nu | !paste > gdc E: Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (11 Resource temporarily unavailable) | 11:46 |
nu | E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), is another process using it? | 11:46 |
odla | Dodzey: oh wait...flock crashes immediately | 11:46 |
xsimo | apple allow you to create pdf files | 11:46 |
micahcowan | Renan_s2, define "manage"? For viewing, xpdf is actually my favorite. lame interface, but still the best IMO | 11:46 |
Renan_s2 | mint|Alex, I want to manage them (i.e. sort by type/author/date/whatever) | 11:46 |
Dodzey | odla:ohh | 11:46 |
nu | oops | 11:46 |
Ireclan | None? | 11:46 |

Renan_s2 | micahcowan, manage = sort by author/date/subject/... | 11:46 |
trogbot | cdubya: The only share I have is the printer...trying to get away from windoz, but need to support printing for my win users. | 11:46 |
Ireclan | Whatsoever? | 11:46 |
nu | yes. it seemed to have downloaded everything | 11:46 |
Dodzey | odla:strange that....but it works fine without java plugin linked? | 11:46 |
odla | yeah | 11:46 |
gdb | nu: Yeah, you must have synaptic or something running also. | 11:46 |
micahcowan | Renan_s2, to my knowledge, no simple package to do that. If you install xpdf, you could use pdfinfo to write some good shell scripts, if you like to get your hands dirty... | 11:46 |
Knut | dhcp doesnt work, and if i configure network manually it doesnt work too | 11:46 |
trogbot | cdubya: For the time being that is...maybe later will try other shares. | 11:46 |
gdb | nu: you can't be running any other package manager at the same time | 11:47 |
Plouj | any ideas why ubuntu doesn't write grub to that disk's MBR? | 11:47 |
Knut | network card and cable are both ok | 11:47 |
Renan_s2 | micahcowan, I could try. | 11:47 |
cdubya | trogbot, the reason I ask is that it would be good to make sure that samba's playing nice | 11:47 |
LnxSlck | mint|Alex: do u know a repo to get acrebat reader ? | 11:47 |
